Library orientation is all about genre this year! The students did a great job identifying genres and learning all about the library. We have already checked out over 700 books and it’s not even the end of August yet! #BooksForEveryone #ilovedcsd @DeKalbSchools @DCSDEdMedia

WE’RE SO BACK!!! Get ready for another year of the Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl and this year we will be offering graphic novel book clubs at the library! #BooksForEveryone

yes yes and yes! @marciakochel you couldn’t have said it better. my 8th graders are too old for what middle grade is pushing, but so much of YA is for 10th-12th grade, so what’s left for them? publishers can solve this balancing act.

It's National Library Workers Day.

Take 5 mins today to thank a library worker. With the current climate of censorship, they're dealing w/unprecedented harassment & threats. Let them know you value them & all they do for the community. #NationalLibraryWeek #UniteAgainstBookBans
